THE WISE PARROT
*************************
   Once a learned pedagogue went to a shop dealing in birds to cop a nice parrot.Selecting a parrot, he asked the shopkeeper," Are you sure this parrot does not scream or yell?"The shopkeeper responded,"Oh no,it is a very religious parrot.Look at those strings on his legs.When you pull the right string,it chants prayers and when you pull the left one,it starts humming melodious songs."
    Quite impressed, the pedagogue blurted out," What happens when you yank both the strings simultaneously?"
   Instead of the shopkeeper, the parrot screamed," I tumble down,you stupid nincompoop!"

WHEN I FELT ASHAMED
******************************
In my 10th standard, one of my classmates was a habitual stutterer. Whenever he faltered and fumbled while speaking, we would cachinnate heartily. Some boys would ridicule him, make fun of him and always hectored him. I, too, would play band music in unison with them in hurling mocking innuendoes at him. No one liked to talk with him.Notwithstanding, he tried to befriend me, but I always snubbed him rudely. Yet he carried himself confidently and very well.
   One day I had a kerfuffle with some boys over a game. We indulged into a frightful argument. As I was alone and losing the argument, this boy took up cudgel on my behalf and rescued me with his witty points. I was stunned and speechless and felt utterly ashamed and rueful at my uncouth behaviour towards him !!

MOST DISGUSTING
                            =================
  
  It is most deplorable,lamentable and reprehensible that all the evil forces (Pseudo secularists) have joined hands together to stall Modi from coming to power by accusing him with baseless and unjustifiable charges.They are trying their level best to camouflage their own shameful and spiteful misdeeds by the curtain of blatant lies and cries.But they must not forget that their fabrics of lies would be torn to tatters by the harassed,persecuted and tormented gullible people in this election.Needless to say they deserve to be wiped out lock,stock and barrel.

                             JAAGO PUBLIC JAAGO!!

No doubt we are at loggerheads with Nature. We are drifting farther and farther away from Nature and our lives have become very alienated from the laws of Nature.
We live surrounded by crowds of other people, in small rooms or apartments with practically no sunshine or ventilation. We squander most of our waking hours sitting down, with very little physical labour.Our victuals are highly processed and are totally different from how it is found in nature.
We are in almost constant motion at very high speed.We are breathing in air full of pollutants.We are drinking contaminated water , eating food seeped in chemicals and living in surroundings  that are disgusting dirty !!
  WHAT AN IRONY !

Myth or reality

MYTH    OR    REALITY
-----------------------------------------
      If a cat crosses your path, halt! Wait till someone else passes ahead of you and then only should you continue with your jaunt.Who knows what may happen to you if you are the first one to cross the cat's trail!
     If you are leaving the house and someone calls you back for something, you had better jettison your programme for that day.If you go ahead with it,you will only flop and flounder.
     If an owl dwells somewhere near your house,block your ears.If you hear the hooting of an owl, someone will fall sick.
     If you hear a dog whining,get ready to start mourning because someone close to you is going to perish.
      I wonder whether you believe any of these things.Are these myths or reality ?
